Bug #75024 [NEW]: glob(): Non-portable GLOB_BRACE presented without warning

From: chealer at gmail dot com Operating system: PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Bug Bug description:glob(): Non-portable GLOB_BRACE presented without warning Description: ------------ http://php.net/manual/en/function.glob.php contains: GLOB_BRACE - Expands {a,b,c} to match 'a', 'b', or 'c' While this apparently works on GNU/Linux, mac OS and Windows, I am told it does not on systems like Solaris: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=70544&edit=2 And there is indeed a mention to that effect in the documentation page, the only problem being that: *There is no mention in the item under "Valid flags" for GLOB_BRACE. *The mention is a mere "Note" (white background). I have personally committed code using this option without realizing it was not portable. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=75024&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=75024&r=mysqlcfg
